Will definitely be watching tonight and any other time. I love it. I love the whole thing. Have never been. Probably missed my chance when it was in Georgia, but I don't like to fight the crowds any more. I know the Canadians will be so welcoming. I have gotten to know so many through my blogging world, definitely feel a kinship to our fellow NAmericans.QMM

Have you seen the commercial about the Olympian swimmer headed for Vancouver by plowing through the ground? Don't go that way! Yes, it is infectious and, yes, we will be watching. You bet'cha! As I told Judy, and it goes without saying, have a blast!

Yep....I am surprised at what a lump in the throat I feel these days...I mean...a swelling with pride...patriotism and no matter what any political stance one has on the games...we cannot deny the original intent of the bringing together of the finest...to compete...pure and simple. What dedication, what pride each athlete brings to represent their party. I too intend to take the train downtown and visit all the wonderful countries represented in their special pavillions. Like Expo all over again only better. Yee Haw...bring on the games! Fondue party? Lucky you!

We will definitely be watching the opening ceremonies tonight, and I do want you to know that they mean even more to me because of each of you, my Canadian blogging friends. Celebrating with good friends and fondue...what could be better! I am going to thank you all ahead of time, for all you have been and will continue to share on the Olympics. It certainly does add a personal touch to a special event. Hope you all have a wonderful evening together.

Oh, Lovella, I'm so excited for you! It's a wonderful chance to share your home with the world, and for you to get out and mingle with 'the world'. We were in Vancouver a few years ago for an Alaskan cruise, and I am looking forward to looking for landmarks I remember from our trip. Enjoy this time! Blessings, Becky
